Advancing the Sustainable Development Goals: New Report and Webinar

Business Action and Millennials' Perspectives

One year on from the launch of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), our new research reveals that although business awareness of the SDGs has increased in the past year, tangible action to address the Global Goals has been slow to follow.

81% of millennials surveyed by Corporate Citizenship said they believe the private sector has a very important role to play in achieving the Global Goals, but the majority of companies surveyed are not yet taking action to address them. Download the report below to delve into the insights of both business and millennials, as we look at how to close the prevalent trust-deficit between the two.

To accompany the launch of the new report, we are running two complimentary webinars on Tuesday 4th October to share the research findings and business insights. Sign up for The Global Goals One Year On: Business Action vs. Expectation webinar below.

How to get value from the RobecoSAM Percentiles Database

  • What the database is and how it works
  • How to use the database to establish full understanding of your performance topic-by-topic
  • Integrating the information into your plans to improve year-on-year
